Advantages and Disadvantages of Transpiration | Plants Physiology

In this article we will discuss about the advantages and disadvantages of transpiration. Advantages of Transpiration: 1. Ascent of Sap: Ascent of sap mostly occurs due to transpiration pull exerted by transpiration of water. This pull also helps in absorption of water. 2. Removal of Excess Water: It has been held that plants absorb far more amount of water than [...]

Differences among OP (Ѱs),TP (Ѱp) , WP and DPD (Ѱw) | Plants Physiology

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences among OP (Ѱs),TP (Ѱp) , WP (Ѱw) and DPD (Ѱw). Difference # OP ( Ѱs): 1. It is potential pressure that can develop ill ii solution when it is separated from pure solvent by a semipermeable membrane. 2. It can develop in both confined and unconfined systems. 3. It is dependent [...]

Plasmolysis: Meaning and Importance | Plant Physiology

In this article we will discuss about the Meaning and Importance of Plasmolysis. Meaning of Plasmolysis: Shrinkage of the protoplast of a cell from its cell wall under the influence of a hypertonic solution is called plasmolysis. Hypertonic solution causes exosmosis or withdrawal of water from cytoplasm and then the central vacuole of cell. The size of cytoplasm as well [...]
